“What is trash TV?”, By Peter Canelo – Trade

The Peruvian television, in days and at different times, is a cruel mirror of social strain in which we live. That increasingly sharp and flat idiot box is also a Frankenstein monstrous grown all vices: sexism, violence, homophobia and racism. That’s known that the song “Taxi”. But propose a march against television garbage can encounter inefficiency and trivialization. With so hurry protests, now in Facebook are proposing marches towards Marco finds his mom and that Quico can play with his square ball.

As a preliminary matter should define: what is trash TV? I’d rather use another term: degrading television. There we could gather productions abuse sexism (the contest back in “The night is mine”), which undermine the dignity (the bizarre contests programs Laura Bozzo ) or awakening racism and homophobia (almost all television sitcoms of our history have ever fallen into that). Although these examples are almost irrefutable, we must recognize that any sentence to a TV program is within the realm of the subjective. To me that television could be degrading “springboard to fame” Ferrando, not for others.

It is not ridiculous the idea of ​​marching against the poor content of the open signal, however it is not a measure that determine the changes that many dream after perhaps throw the remote control window. It’s almost like going to protest against traffic in Lima or in the restaurants food unwelcome insects no longer appear. A political protest is different, most focus on demanding reforms or good behavior to the State. Here are more actors. The culprits in the miseries of our TV are not only in a channel switcher.

If a child 12 years ago abs every day at home to look like one of the models of “This Is War” is not only the responsibility of the programmer or drivers. There are parents or older siblings who may be more critical in the education of these adolescents. do not know if we have the television we deserve, but one that is tied to our levels of education.

A protest will not change the ráting of Magaly or ‘Peluchín’. Let marches better when politicians misbehave. Not waste a civil right that recent times has recovered lost ground. If you do not want to know the last fight between Sheyla y Pavón, better follow the teachings of the philosopher called Melcochita street. Do you think garbage? So: do not see
